Tight and itchy, or coated and heavy? Two different problems. How to tell them apart, and the routine that clears build-up without stripping the scalp.

Dryness and flaking are not one problem, which is why so many people end up treating them with the wrong thing. A genuinely dry scalp feels tight and uncomfortable and flakes finely. A congested one can flake too, while feeling coated and heavy rather than tight — and reaching for something richer will make it worse.
The quick test most of our salon consultants use: how does your scalp feel the day after washing? Tight and itchy points towards dryness. Coated, heavy, or flat at the roots points towards build-up. Many people have both at once, in different areas of the scalp, which is normal and worth treating as two separate jobs.
The Scalp Therapy range covers both. The Peeling Serum and Exfoliating Shampoo lift what is sitting on the scalp; the Nourishing Mask restores comfort afterwards. Used weekly and in that order, the routine addresses congestion without leaving the scalp stripped.
If flaking is heavy, greasy, yellow, or comes with redness, soreness or hair loss, see a doctor or a dermatologist. That pattern can point to a condition that needs treating properly rather than a cosmetic routine.

The Hair Growth range is the daily routine, for hair that is thinning or that you want to support. The Scalp Therapy range is a scalp reset, used 3 to 4 times a week, for a scalp that is congested, flaking or uncomfortable. Many people use both. How they fit together.
You can, but a single product used for a few weeks rarely tells you anything. The routines are designed and priced to be used together for a full hair cycle.
The scalp usually settles first, within a few weeks. Density is the last thing to change, and twelve weeks is the honest minimum before judging it. Take a photograph of your part on day one. Why twelve weeks.
